I really like the mascot character on the first shirt example and the message of supporting anime by watching legally. Maybe have that mascot wearing a military Kevlar helmet and saluting with a message saying "Support anime. Watch Legally at the speed of Japan!". That image could be the back of the shirt and have the logo and website on the front with the military-ish stars and stripes around the Crunchyroll logo. I'd draw it out but I suck at that sort of stuff. Maybe someone talented could do it for me? Anyways, That message should definitly be in there. I feel it's the very core of what Crunchyroll is about.
